Changes in participant behaviour and attitudes are associated with knowledge and skills gained by using a turtle conservation citizen science app
Citizen science has become a popular way to collect biodiversity data and engage the wider public in scientific research. It has the potential to improve the knowledge and skills of participants, and positively change their behaviour and attitude towards the environment. Citizen science outcomes are particularly valuable for wildlife conservation, as they could help alleviate human impacts on the environment. We used an online questionnaire to investigate the consequences of participating in an Australian turtle mapping app, TurtleSAT, on skills and knowledge gain, and test for any association between these gains with behavioural or attitudinal changes reported by the participants. 148 citizen scientists completed our questionnaire, mostly from the states of New South Wales and Victoria. Participants listed TurtleSAT as the third most common source of knowledge about turtle ecology and conservation, after a talk about turtles and personal observations/research. Citizen scientists who participated more often were more knowledgeable about turtles than infrequent users. Self-reported gains in knowledge and skills were positively linked to attitudinal and behavioural changes, such as being more aware of turtles on roads. However, behaviour and attitude changes were not related to participation rate. Respondents also reported that after learning about the current decline in turtle populations, they adopted several turtle-friendly practices, such as habitat restoration or moving turtles out of harm's way, underlining the importance of increasing people's awareness on species declines. The reported changes in attitudes and behaviours are likely to positively impact the conservation of Australian freshwater turtles. Engagement with citizen science projects like TurtleSAT may result in participants being more interested in the natural world, by learning more about it and being more exposed to it, and therefore contribute more actively to its protection.

Dataset: Survey on the actual situation of antibiotic resistant bacteria detection by nucleic acid amplification test in clinical microbiology laboratories at hospitals in Japan: Online survey of participants in workshops organized by the Nara Association of Medical Technologists
<p>The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has led to the widespread use of the nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT), along with an increase in demand for SARS-CoV-2 tests. NAAT has been used to detect antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes since before the pandemic, but the test has been performed in a limited number of facilities. We investigated the current status and background of Japanese clinical laboratories by surveying the implementation of genotypic AST in NAAT, which has become widespread owing to the pandemic. This means that 59% of the respondents possessed NAAT and were using it for genotypic AST. GeneXpert and FilmArray were introduced in the majority of cases (62.5% and 82.6%, respectively), with the pandemic as the trigger. More than half of the respondents cited “rapid detection” (56.0%) and “ICT requests” (52.4%) as the reasons for introducing the system. Regarding usefulness, “contribution to infectious disease treatment” (74.1%) showed the highest percentage. Among the respondents who cited “not implemented”, the most frequent responses were “I have no plans, but I want to do it.” (38.1%) and “would do so if requested by a physician” (33.3%). The most common reason for not implementing the system was concern about increased workload (52.9%). We believe that this is due to changes in the working environment caused by the pandemic and the characteristics of Japanese society. In the future, to promote the adoption of genotypic AST, it will be necessary to approach it through reports on its usefulness from domestic facilities, and simultaneously, improving and enhancing efficiency in work processes will also be essential.</p>
Data from: Effectiveness of Online Off-the-Job Training in Attracting Participants and Video-On-Demand Streaming in Improving Work-Life Balance: A Study Focusing on Medical Technologists
<p>The Nara Association of Medical Technologists has introduced online Off-Job Training (Off-JT) starting from FY2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to evaluate the online Off-JT, which differs from the traditional face-to-face format. Firstly, we compared the online format's ability to attract participants with the face-to-face format based on the number of training sessions and attendees. Despite having fewer training sessions (40.8% less), the online format had an average attendance of 105.4% higher (39.7 vs. 19.3) than the face-to-face format. To enhance participant convenience, we offered a limited number of live and video-on-demand (VOD) sessions on YouTube, evaluating their usefulness through an online survey focusing on work-life balance (WLB). The survey results showed that 81.9% (458/559) of respondents reported an improvement in WLB. The effect on WLB improvement varied depending on the viewing method, with VOD sessions showing 84.1% (376/447) and live sessions showing 73.2% (82/112). We believe that the increased ability to attract participants in the online Off-JT is mainly due to the elimination of travel burdens through internet-connected devices. The combination of live and VOD sessions on YouTube allowed participants to adjust their viewing time, leading to better allocation of free time and improved WLB. The online Off-JT and VOD delivery have shown to enhance convenience for participants by removing geographical and time constraints, resulting in positive effects.</p>

Data from: Determinants of hyena participation in risky collective action
<p>Collective action problems arise when cooperating individuals suffer costs of cooperation, while the benefits of cooperation are received by both cooperators and defectors. We address this problem using data from spotted hyenas fighting with lions. Lions are much larger, and kill many hyenas, so these fights require cooperative mobbing by hyenas for them to succeed. We identify factors that predict: when hyena groups engage in cooperative fights with lions, which individuals choose to participate, and how the benefits of victory are distributed among cooperators and non-cooperators. We find that cooperative mobbing is better predicted by lower costs (no male lions, more hyenas) than higher benefits (need for food). Individual participation is facilitated by social factors, both over the long term (close kin, social bond strength) and the short term (greeting interactions prior to cooperation). Finally, we find some direct benefits of participation: after cooperation, participants were more likely to feed at contested carcasses than non-participants. Overall, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that, when animals face dangerous cooperative dilemmas, selection favors flexible strategies that are sensitive to dynamic factors emerging over multiple time-scales.</p>
GENDER DIVERSITY AND ITS IMPACT ON THE WOMEN PARTICIPATION IN THE WORKFORCE: WITH REFERENCE TO INDIAN CORPORATE SECTOR. (HRM: PARTICIPATION OF WOMEN IN THE WORK FORCE
<p>Gender roles have been two different sized fruits on the same tree branch since olden times. <br>The distinguished rule book for both males and females which had been followed for since <br>long still has its effects widely seen in the Indian corporate sector also. With the recurrent <br>fluctuation experienced in the women participation in the Indian workforce, the main pulling <br>back factor always has been Gender Diversity issues. There are many workplace factors <br>which infuse more power to this aspect called gender diversity; some of which are out of <br>one’s control while many of which are manageable. These factors include salary range, job <br>positions, promotional opportunities, workplace behavior and many more. The list is endless, <br>but the impact of all the gamut of such aspects has to be borne by the female employees. This <br>paper is a descriptive analysis on the effect of various factors on the gender diversity issues in <br>Indian Corporate sector. Secondary data has been used in order to correlate the factors like <br>salary, promotional opportunities, and other factors in the corporate sector with the gender <br>diversity issues. The statistical evidences have been depicted with the help of graphs and pie <br>charts which would contribute in making the whole situation of diversity issues more crystal <br>clear and transparent for the readers. The paper is an attempt towards finding the in-depth <br>causes for the ups and downs in the women participation in the nations’ workforce and also to <br>bring about a change in the current plight of female workers in Indian Corporate sector</p>
Participation of electrochemically inserted protons in the hydrogen evolution reaction on tungsten oxides
<p>Understanding the mechanisms by which electrodes undergo the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is<br>necessary to design better materials for aqueous energy storage and conversion. Here, we investigate<br>the HER mechanism on tungsten oxide electrodes, which are stable in acidic electrolytes and can<br>undergo proton-insertion coupled electron transfer concomitant with the HER. Electrochemical<br>characterization showed that anhydrous and hydrated tungsten oxides undergo changes in HER activity<br>coincident with changes in proton composition, with activity in the order HxWO3*H2O>HxWO3 ><br>HxWO3*2H2O. We used operando X-ray diffraction and density functional theory to understand the<br>structural and electronic changes in the materials at high states of proton insertion, when the oxides are<br>most active towards the HER. H0.69WO3*H2O and H0.65WO3 have similar proton composition, structural<br>symmetry, and electronic properties at the onset of the HER, yet exhibit different activity. We<br>hypothesize that the electrochemically inserted protons can diffuse in hydrogen bronzes and participate<br>in the HER. This would render the oxide volume, and not just the surface, as a proton and electron<br>reservoir at high overpotentials. HER activity is highest in HxWO3*H2O, which optimizes both the degree<br>of proton insertion and solid-state proton transport kinetics. Our results highlight the interplay between<br>the HER and proton insertion-coupled electron transfer on transition metal oxides, many of which are<br>non-blocking electrodes towards protons.</p>
Women's political participation in city council, Debretabor City Administration, Ethiopia: An exploration of barriers
<p><span>Women have traditionally been marginalized within the political sphere, notwithstanding their significant achievements. The study looks at the barriers that stand in the way of women participating actively in politics, with a particular emphasis on the Debre Tabor City Council. A case study research design was used in the study. The sample techniques used were maximum variation, deviant case, and intensity sampling. Semi-structured interviews, life histories, and focus group discussions (FGD) were also used to obtain the data. The findings showed that women's political engagement in city council was in danger due to a variety of factors, including <span>gender bias in decision-making processes</span>, the country's shifting political landscape, and <span>Islamic religion fellows' perspectives.</span> <span>In light of this, the research findings urged the need for gender-sensitive policy formulation within the city administration council. </span></span></p>

Memory array locations, delay times, and participant response
<p>Deliberative decisions based on an accumulation of evidence over time depend on working-memory, and working memory has limitations, but how these limitations affect deliberative decision-making is not understood. We used human psychophysics to assess the impact of working-memory limitations on the fidelity of a continuous decision variable. Participants decided the average location of multiple visual targets. This computed, continuous decision variable degraded with time and capacity in a manner that depended critically on the strategy used to form the decision variable. This dependence reflected whether the decision variable was computed either: 1) immediately upon observing the evidence, and thus stored as a single value in memory; or 2) at the time of the report, and thus stored as multiple values in memory. These results provide important constraints on how the brain computes and maintains temporally dynamic decision variables. <br><br>The following data is the responses and trial information collected from each subject in each condition: Simultaneous Perceived, Simultaneous Computed, Sequential Perceived, and Sequential Computed.</p>
Photos of participants of Turin Workshop (11 and 12 April 2022): Skull collections. Series, standardization and instruments
<p>During the two days of the workshop in the Museum of Human Anatomy was inaugurated the Exhibition: "The art of trepanning".</p> <p>The artworks of the Peruvian artist Fernando Bedoya, exhibited near the showcase where the two South American mummies are preserved, are intended to dialogue with the human findings as well as evoking the ancient surgical practices of the Incas, known as trepanation, which consisted of the perforation of the skull.</p> <p>Bedoya, through his ceramic replicas of ancient heads, imitates the act of trepanation by perforating twice the head. One hole is left open, following the sign of the surgical intervention, while the other hole is covered with a bottle cap of Coca-Cola, a brand of the modern global exploiter.</p> <p>On display are also four of his engravings from the “Fardos” series, where the use of collage and silkscreen techniques bind together like the bandaging of a mummy.</p>
Data for: Citizen science as an ecosystem of engagement: Implications for learning and broadening participation
<p>The bulk of research on citizen science participants is project-centric, based on an assumption that volunteers experience a single project. Contrary to this assumption, survey responses (n=3,894) and digital trace data (n=3,649) from volunteers, who collectively engaged in 1,126 unique projects, revealed that multi-project participation was the norm. Only 23% of volunteers were singletons (who participated in only one project), and multi-project participants split evenly between disciplines specialists (39%) and discipline spanners (38% joined projects with different disciplinary topics), and unevenly between mode specialists (67%) and mode spanners (33% participated in online and offline projects). Public engagement was narrow: multi-project participants were eight times more likely to be white, and five times more likely to hold advanced degrees, than the general population. We propose a volunteer-centric framework that explores how the dynamic accumulation of experiences in a project ecosystem can support broad learning objectives and inclusive citizen science. </p>
Mechanical energy fluctuation in lower limbs during walking in participants with and without total hip replacement
<p>Mechanical energy fluctuation of the segments in the lower limbs during walking has not been fully investigated. It was hypothesised that the segments of the lower limbs may work as a pendulum, i.e., the kinetic and potential energies exchanged out of phase. This study aimed to investigate energy changes and recovery during gait in hip replacement patients. The gait data for 12 participants with total hip replacement and 12 age-matched controls were compared. The kinetic, potential, and rotative energies for the whole lower limb and thigh, calf, and foot, were calculated. The effectiveness of a pendulum effect was analysed. Gait parameters, e.g., walking speeds, cadence, and stride length were calculated. The results showed that the thigh had significant effectiveness as a pendulum during gait with an energy recovery coefficient of approximately 40% while the calf and foot were less like a pendulum during gait. In comparison, energy recoveries of the lower limbs in the two groups were not significantly different. If the centre of the pelvis was considered as approximate to the centre of mass, however, the control group had a higher energy recovery than the total hip replacement group by roughly 10%. This study concluded that the mechanical energy recovery mechanism in the lower limbs during walking exists for two groups.</p>
